when you open /etc/host as root, you can see
# Do not remove the following line, or various programs
# that require network functionality will fail.
127.0.0.1       localhost.localdomain   localhost

and now just add user32.supernet.pl behind localhost. In my /etc/hosts
it looks like this :

# Do not remove the following line, or various programs
# that require network functionality will fail.
127.0.0.1       localhost.localdomain   localhost josephine


I don't know, whether it is the only correct solution, but it works
fine ;)
